PSPdisp 0.3 Released: Use Your PSP as a Second PC Monitor
greg | July 10, 2009
Take a Windows display and USB driver, an application responsible for capturing, compressing, and sending screen frames with a little homebrew that picks up, decompresses said frames, and displays ‘em… You have the now better-than-ever dual monitor solution utilizing your PSP — that’s JJS’ PSPdisp. Get a load of this…
PSPdisp 0.3 changes…
New features:
- SideShow driver for Vista and Windows 7
- Speed improvements / CPU load reduction
- CPU load reduction (down to 0 % without screen changes) when using the PSPdisp display driver
- Rotation is now performed on the PSP, no increase in CPU load on the PC
- Quality and delay settings now customizable through the UI
- Completely revamped Wlan mode (switched server to the PC, can now recover from a lost connection etc.)
- Added option to disable display streaming (only transmitting controls)
- New option to always switch the PSP display to the screen containing the mouse cursor
- New control file command to display an onscreen keyboard for entering text on the PSP
- New control file command to display the PSPdisp menu at the current mouse position
- Added support for the assignment of key combinations to PSP buttons (e.g. ALT+F4 can be mapped to one button)
- Various settings regarding PSP power saving in USB mode (turning off screen, reducing clock speed, etc. after a user defined idle timeout)
- PSP clock speed can be configured for Wireless LAN mode (default, 111, 222, 333 MHz)
- All user defined files (configuration data and control files) now stored in the application data path
- Experimental audio streaming
Bug fixes:
- Case of analog stick movements not being registered
- The two longest delay settings are now clickable
- “Grab transparent windows” now actually works (only for 480×272 viewport)
Known issues:
- There are cases where the PSP waits for a Wlan timeout infinitely, making it seem to hang without any message (always fixed by restarting the PSP game, often fixed by turning the Wlan switch off and on again)
- Audio will stutter if data cannot be transmitted fast enough either because of the network conditions or low PC specs
- Some applications issue drawing commands without apparent screen changes, in that case there is no CPU load reduction available when using the PSPdisp display driver
